7:55 a.m. update: Crash in Maple Grove on I-94

The latest snags on the system come in the form of a crash taking out the left lane of eastbound 94 at 101st Avenue in Maple Grove. Three also is a crash at Hemlock Lane, so prepare for a longer drive than normal.

We've also got one in the east metro on westbound 94 at Manning Avenue. Ahead, things are not much better with heavy traffic from 694 to downtown St. Paul.

In addition to the third straight weekend closure of Interstate 94 in downtown Minneapolis, MnDOT will demolish the flyover bridge from northbound Interstate 35W to westbound Interstate 94. It will be closed until 2021.

The Minnesota Department of Transportation is reminding anglers heading to this weekend's fishing opener to plan ahead and leave plenty of time to get to their destination. The advice holds true for motorists traveling in downtown Minneapolis where two freeways will be closed.

The Minnesota Department of Transportation will shut the freeway down between Interstates 394 and 35W for the next three weekends to allow crews refurbish the Irene Hixon Whitney pedestrian bridge spanning I-94 and connecting the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden and Loring Park.
